AB - There are many lexical items in Korean which were lexicalized from the syntactic structure 'X +eopta'(adjective)'. This paper aimed to confirm the lexicalization of these 'X-eopta' forms and explore the principle and manner of them. We can devide X into 10 types by their properties. Among them, many types can be restored to syntactic structures. But X in 'X-eopta' forms cannot be modified by verbs or adjectives, and 'eopta' has no ability to permit negative polarity items, and sometimes syntactic forms and 'X-eopta' forms show different distributions and functions. Therefore it is certain that 'X-eopta' forms had experienced lexicalization. In this paper 7 characteristics of 'X-eopta' lexicalization were presented. I discussed the lexicalization processes of every 'X-eopta' type. I argued that the lexicalization of 'X-eopta' types originated from the conventionalization of implied meaning of syntactic structures.
